EA quiet upgrade installation
« on: June 03, 2010, 01:05:37 am »
Hi

When upgrading EA (e.g. from 7.5 to 8), the installation wizzard uninstalls the older version first, if so confirmed in the displayed dialog.

How can this be achieved, when doing an automated quiet upgrade as described in the deployment whitepaper?
(msiexec /i c:\setupfull.msi /q allusers=2)

Thanks,
Thomas

You'd have to explicitly uninstall the older version with a preceeding command as far as I'm aware (use the /x argument).
Best Regards,

Michael
